DUNLOP MX51 OFF-ROAD TIRE

Dunlop Geomax MX51 Intermediate Terrain Rear Tire. New profile design with more tread volume (greater land/sea ratio) in the shoulders for excellent cornering grip and a more open center-tread area for straight-line grip. Recessed biting edges in shoulder tread blocks yield more traction for greater grip, especially in corners and ruts, throughout a wide range of terrain conditions. Chiseled shoulder block shape improves side traction and makes traversing ruts easier. This tapered shape facilitates knob penetration through soft surfaces, whereas a flat knob would ”float” and/or be deflected. Instead, the tapered knob penetrates into the firmer underlying ground to give the tire more bite for more traction.Tie-bar design connects and reinforces the tread blocks for greater tread stiffness, yielding improved intermediate-to-hard terrain performance. Recess design in the area between tread blocks gives the tire improved compliance for enhanced ride comfort. Larger-radius tread block base for strength and increased durability. Used by top pro riders for the 2008 Supercross and Motocross Nationals
